Genesis occupy a unique place in rock history, having continually reinvented themselves while remaining one of the most
successful and influential bands of their generation. Formed in Surrey in 1967, the group first established themselves as pioneers
of progressive rock during the early 1970s with Peter Gabriel as frontman, before entering a new chapter following his departure
in 1975. Drummer Phil Collins stepped seamlessly into the role of lead vocalist, while Tony Banks and Mike Rutherford remained
the band's creative core. The later addition of Chester Thompson on drums and Daryl Stuermer on guitar for live performances
enabled Genesis to faithfully recreate their increasingly ambitious studio recordings on stage, and by 1987 they had successfully
transformed themselves from progressive rock innovators into one of the world's biggest bands.
Released in June 1986, Invisible Touch marked the commercial peak of Genesis' career. While retaining the sophisticated
songwriting and musicianship that had long defined the band, the album embraced a brighter, more contemporary sound built
around shimmering synthesisers, electronic textures and polished production. It yielded an extraordinary run of international hit
singles and introduced Genesis to an even wider global audience.
To support the album, Genesis embarked upon the monumental Invisible Touch Tour, performing 112 concerts across North
America, Europe, Japan, Australia and New Zealand between September 1986 and July 1987. Captured at Osaka-jou Hall on 18
March 1987, the performance presented here stands among the finest of the entire tour. The band deliver a near-flawless
performance, balancing the stadium-sized anthems of their contemporary catalogue with classic material from earlier eras, while
Collins is in exceptional vocal form and the entire group perform with remarkable precision, confidence and energy. It is Genesis
at the absolute height of their live powers.
A superb document of one of the most successful tours of the 1980s, this recording captures Genesis at the moment
when artistic maturity and global popularity came together in perfect balance. For long-time fans and newcomers alike,
it stands as an essential addition to any Genesis collection.
